The European commoN EneRgy dataSpace framework enabling data sHaring-driven Across- and beyond-eneRgy sErvices (ENERSHARE) aims to:
a. deliver a Reference Architecture for a European Energy Data Space, which hybridizes SGAM with IDSA and GAIA-X architectures, by bringing data value chain perspective into the energy one
b. evolve interoperability, trust, data value and governance building blocks to TRL 6-7 IDSA-compliant ones, adapt them to energy sector, and deploy:
- across-energy and cross-sector data enhancement technology enablers and standardizable interfaces and open APIs by leveraging on open Standards (e.g. ETSI Context Broker) and ontologies (e.g. SAREF)
- trust-related connectors, to ensure privacy, confidentiality, cybersecurity preserving trust, sovereignty, and full control of data
- Blockchain/Smart contract-enriched marketplace for data versus energy assets/services coordination, sharing, exchange, and beyond financial compensation
- cross-value chain value-added services and Digital Twins, by leveraging on privacy-preserving federated learning
c. integrate and deploy them within a Reference Implementation of a European Energy Data Space, which will be demonstrated along 7 pilots and 11 intra-electricity, intra-energy and beyond energy use cases
d. co-design SSH-based consumer-centric business models for energy data sharing enabling data beyond-financial value creation and spreading along value chain
e. prepare the ground for the European Energy Data Space setup, through alignment with EU-level relevant initiatives (GAIA-X, IDSA, BDVA, ETIP SNET, BRIDGE), contributing to Data Space standardization and boosting a level playing field for data sharing.
